Getting played and knowing it, .....
By this time, I think it has become fairly apparent that there is a juicing movement to try and paint the DU with the same brush as that unnamed territory that is down now.

It seems to me, that their (those that shall not be named) own battles, have so embarrassed them, the obvious holes in their so called coalition of the willing, that they have done some attacks into our territory so they can say.. "see those people at the DU do not support their canidate.."

It might behoove us, to ignore their attempts.

When the level of rhetoric starts out with a swipe accusing Obama, Clinton, Edwards etc supporters that will insure a gut level response, that might not otherwise happen, you can almost bet..

WE WERE BEING PLAYED.

Questions, suggestions, etc of how things are working are worded differently to get a dialog going not all out war.

Just an observation from the sidelines..

3. Excellent observation, peacetrain. I don't know what can be done about it but
slowly they become obvious and one-by-one seem to be disappearing. This will take some time.

5. They do seem to come in a group..and it gets cleared out
someone will post a thread noting that we had an invasion, and invariably,you will get those who demand you link them to the threads. (I have my suspects about that also, when it is easy to go back a page and catch it all)

I think time is what it will take, because they (the other side) are getting squirreler by the second. And hopefully we do not get a lot of hurt feelings stirred up by squirrels escaping the other place.
